FINANCIAL AID
Congressional School is pleased to offer need-based financial aid to children enrolled in preschool - 8th grade.
Congressional School uses a 3rd party platform to objectively determine a family’s ability to contribute to their child(ren)'s educational expenses. The platform will provide the School with a recommended grant amount, and Congressional’s Financial Aid Committee will then make a final determination regarding the amount of the financial aid award. School budget constraints may limit the number and size of financial aid awards. Per school policy, need-based financial aid is only available to students in preschool through 8th grade and our maximum award is 80%. All applications are held in strict confidence. In addition, families must re-apply for financial aid on an annual basis.
If you are interested in applying for financial aid, tell us at the beginning of the admission process. We recommend completing the admission application and financial aid application simultaneously.
The first-round Financial Aid Application Deadline is January 12, 2024, at 4 p.m.
Applicants must complete the Admission application process to be considered for Financial Aid. To be considered for the first round of grants, financial aid applications are due on January 12, 2024, at 4 p.m.
Applications received after this time will be reviewed based on any funds available after the first round is complete. Second-round awards will be offered on a rolling basis until the budget is exhausted.
